Information

Some Lexus model year GS, IS, and RC have the ability to bolt-on 6 POT front Brembo calipers onto the car. These calipers with the right rotors will be a direct bolt-on without any use of shims, bracket or spacers. Depending on the model of the car, the rear Brembo caliper can be a direct bolt-on. There are two different version of the Lexus Brembo Calipers. 08-14 Lexus ISF or the 15-17 GSF/RCF.

The GSF/RCF calipers are a direct bolt-on when using the GSF/RCF front rotors. Because the rotors are 14.9" in size, a modification to the front dust shield will be required. Cutting off or bending the dust shield can work too. Or a full swap to front RCF and GSF dust shield if you own a 2015+ RC or 2013+ GS. If you own a 2ND Gen IS or 3RD Gen GS then this entire setup would be bolt on only on the front. There is no current solution for the rear. Any base model cars will require a change of dust shield for the front or removal/cut of the dust shield. The rear will require a cut of the dust shield on most model cars. If you own a GS or RC then you have the option to purchase GSF or RCF rear dust shields. The high cost of these shields might force you into cutting your dust shields. Only the 3RD Gen IS models don't have much of an option to purchase capable dust shields.

There are no special brake lines needed. You can purchase SS brake lines for your car's model and it will bolt up. Rear mounting kits has full instructions on installation.
